An impression among many thot “ Al manao makers ” can foretell the kind of weather, ■; that will be experienced during every day in the year. This impression: is gradually wearing away, and the authors of: Almanacs arc rapidly losing credit, oa experience and,general intelli gence satisfy the people of the absurdity of such predictions. Such predictions aro founded on no principles of science, and no facts or reasons that entitle them to any credit, whatever The weather of to day, February Ist, 1854 is suffi.‘ cient proof of this. .Most of the Almanacs that we have seen predict that, this day will bB oold- It is quite the reverse, not only in Pittsburgh, we presume, overa large'part of tho ooun try. Whoever will oarefally observe, tho -weather throughout any year, and compare his observa tions with Almanao predictions, will be satisfied of what is really_ true, that snob predictions Bre entitled to no credit- whatever; and are only qaleulated-to deceive the ignorant, and acquire a confidence wholly unmerited. , * Almntma makers can tell when eclipses of' the snn and moop will occur.

Tho merohants and citizens,; of Now York are evidently resolved to settlo at once and forever the question- of New York's sopremacy as the great commercialTtnd finaneial-metropolis of the country. No efforts: however expensive, no schemes however, dishonest, and no calumnies however false and absurd, are left untried to break down Philadelphia, and Pennsylvania in terests; the great-rivals of New York enterprise and influence. The diiiaeulty at Erie, got up by New Yorkers as a pretext for slander, ond as a means of en listing tbo West on their side, was the firetmovo in tho game. Tho motives, no longer a secret, are first, the removal of the Mint from Philadelphia to New York; inducing all western travoi to seek New York roads; all western trade to go to New York city; all western States to cultivate a prejudice against Pennsylvania, aud particularly against New York’s groat rival, Philadelphia. The guage law of Pennsylvania was repealed in Maroh last. New Yorkers had the right then to ohange the guage of tho Lake Shore road eer ,ly in April. But this change, so much desired, and so imperatively demanded- by the public in terests, ob Ib pretended, was not commenced un til November. In other words, not until three or fonr weeks before tho meeting of. Congress; thus allowing jußt time enongh to got up an an gry excitement throughout the West, by provo king tho Brians into resistanoo; So far the scheme suececds tolerably well. But, lest votes should still be wanting to carry the measures through Congress, some thirty Now Yorkmerohants pub lish a circular stating that they shall patronizo tho Baltimore and Wboeling route, in their West ern and-south-western trade. ■ Matyland and Virginia, papers immediately join the huo and cry against Pennsylvania.

Herald: - Tho chances of war aro imminent, ond not withstanding the anxiety caused by the riso in the price of provisions, which, although in some degroo neutralized by the indemnity given to the bakers, is still severely felt in tho provinces— notwithstanding too, tho reorganization of-the secret societies, which are quietly gaining ground, tho Emperor appears at length to have found the opportunity he was seeking for a pop ■ alar war, by which he hopes to impart to bis reign something of the eclat which distinguished that of his uncle. This was already bis dream —even whoa at Bordeaux he made use of the celebrated saying, “ VJSmpiro e’ett le pair.” It is to tho fact of his being at the head of the war party that M. do Persigny owes his present high favor with tho Emperor.. Itis to this cause also, that Madame do Persigny is indebted for 1 the honor of waltzing with his Majesty at tho 1 last ball at tho Tnilerica. Tho preparations for war are on the most for midable scale. Qcn. Pelissier, one of tbo ablest and moat energetic officers of tho Afrioan nrmy, has been summoned to Paris to assist in them, and at tbo ball jnst alluded to, did not healtato to express his belief that war was inevitable. Gen. Bosque, a much. esteemed officer, has re ceived orders to proceed to Algeria to select for Ibis service a certain number of regiments of Zouaves and Spabis, chosen nodoubtonacoount of tbo oriental charaoter of their costume. They are to bo sent to Candia, with other Frenoh and English troops, us an army of observation. They will amount altogether to about 60,000 French and 20,000 English. The preparations in every department of the service, but especially in tbo artillery, are pushed on with the greatest activ ity. _ The ffcctif in the latter branch will bo most formidable, and the decree regulating it will shortly appoar in tho iloniteur. The aid-de camp of the Minister of Marine, M. d’Hcrblog hem, is said to havo received fresh orders for tho admirals, which impart a still more warliko' character to his first instructions. The public journals will have informed you that tbo Sultan has accepted the recommenda tions of tho allied courts; but opinions are divi ded hero as to tho more or less probability of tbo Czar’s listening to terms. From a sourco whioh I havo reason to consider accurato, I havo heard that tho Emperor received with such bad humor the news of the protocol signed at Vienna on tho 6th of December, without Ms consent,- that no other arrangements sceinod likely to bo accepted by him. It is not probable that, after receiving the news of tho entry of the allied fleetß into the Black Sea, that his note will bo better reocivod. M. Kißselcff is waiting for fresh instructions before he takes his departure; but it is likely that M. de Bruuow will leave London as soon as tbo news of the entry of tho fleets is officially published. Tlie Plunge from the Wheeling Bridge. The telegraph gave us a brief account of a young lady in Wheeling having failed to ooin mit suicide, by jumping from the bridge over tho Ohio at that oity. Tho Intelligencer iSords us father particulars: When she reached the place where tho iron ca bles touched tho railing, at nearly tho highest part of tho brldgo, Mr. George Downey, tho toll collcotor, observed her olimbing up tho railing and removing her bonnet and ebawl. Ho ran to her only in timo to oaoh tho mamilla which Bho wore, when sho broke from his grasp aud leaped to tho stream bolow, a distance, evennt tho pre sent high stage of woter, of not less than seven ty-eight feet l The current was full of floating ice, and destruction seemed inevitable; she sank —then rose—then plunged wildly in the swollen torrent—sank again, roso once more, aud then floated onward amid tho torrent of ice with no thing but her head ond ono bond occasionally visible.. Several men In a skiff put out from somo boat lying at tho wharf.. After endeavors to piok her up, lasting half an hour, they finally got hold of her and took her aboard, wholly insensible. Restoratives were applied and sho recovered.

In Nova Scotia and New Brunswick tho coal field. oovers nearly ten thousand square-miles. In the southeast part of MassaohuBetts, and In Rhode Island, !b a de posit covering nearly five hundred square miles. The great Apalaohian ooal field, extending from New York to Alabama, is Boven hundred and twenty miles in length, and covers nearly one hundred thousand square miles. The Indiana ooal field, three hundred and fifty miles long, embraoes about fifty-five thousand square miles. In Miohigan is another, one hundred and fifty mjles long, which covers twelve thousand square miles. The Misonri and lowa coal fields/ em braoe.fifty thousand square miles. The grand total in the United States amounts to moro than two'hundred and twenty-five thousand square miles.
